- Universal Replaces 'Murder'

BRIEFCASE

March 6, 1997

It's out with the tried-and-true and in with the up-and-coming at Universal Studios. The Orlando theme park will replace an attraction based on the long-running but recently canceled Murder, She Wrote with an attraction based on the syndicated live-action shows Xena: Warrior Princess and Hercules: The Legendary Journeys. The new attraction - Hercules and Xena: Wizards of the Screen - is to open by summer. Like the Murder, She Wrote Mystery Theatre, the new attraction will showcase special effects, sound technology, props and costumes from the shows.
